Shogun Warriors #12
In "The Moon Menace!", the Shogun Warriors race into space to halt a deadly meteor on a collision course with Earth, only to face a far more mysterious threat: a colossal space station hidden in the moon’s shadow. As the team investigates, they’re ambushed by an unseen force, leaving Dangard Ace stranded on the lunar surface—where he’s soon bound by a group of strange, suited figures. The shocking reveal of Dr. Demonicus sets the stage for an escalating confrontation. Written by Doug Moench and illustrated by Herb Trimpe, with inks by Mike Esposito, colors by George Bell, and letters by Jim Novak, this 1980 issue features a striking cover by Walt Simonson.
